Hey, someone maybe have idea why the engine here isnt starting again in the helicopters? Of course in cars its working perfectly, but not in helicopters.

local MotorOn = false
        Citizen.CreateThread(function()
            while true do
                Citizen.Wait(0)
                local ped = cache.ped
                local vehicle = GetVehiclePedIsIn(ped, false)
                local inCar = IsPedInAnyVehicle(ped, false)
                if inCar and vehicle ~= nil and vehicle ~= 0 then
                    if IsControlJustReleased(0, 75) then
                        if not MotorOn and GetVehicleEngineState(vehicle) then
                            MotorOn = true
                        end
                        if MotorOn then
                            
                            SetVehicleEngineOn(vehicle, true, true, false)
                        end
                    else
                        if GetVehicleEngineState(vehicle) then
                            MotorOn = true
                        else
                            MotorOn = false
                        end
                    end
                end
            end
        end)

I even add something like this, but it doesnt help

                        if MotorOn then
                            while MotorOn do
                                print(GetIsVehicleEngineRunning(vehicle))
                                if not GetIsVehicleEngineRunning(vehicle) then 
                                    SetVehicleEngineOn(vehicle, true, false, false)
                                end
                                Citizen.Wait(0)
                            end
                        end

you will get false as a BOOL when trying to use the IsPedInAnyVehicle(ped, false) native in a aircraft. Try using the IsPedInAnyHeli() native and make a new variable that checks if the ped is in a heli, for example:

local inHeli = IsPedInAnyHeli(ped)

if inHeli then
    SetVehicleEngineOn(vehicle, true, true, false)
    MotorOn = true
else
    MotorOn = false
end

keep in mind that this code is just an example
